tavis smiley: should the minimum wage be raised and by how much is a hotly debated issue this election season, as both candidates chase low- and middle-income voters. inequality is too high, wages are too low, and it is just too hard to get ahead for too many americans. i would like to see an increase of some magnitude, but i'd rather leave it to the states. smiley: it's called the fight for 15 in some places. the proposed increases would more than double the current minimum wage. some states have already acted, including california, which last april became the first state in the nation to incrementally raise the statewide minimum wage from $9 to $15 an hour over the next 5 years.
